set "unrecognized command" on catalyst 2900xl

Please be gentle . . . I'm a beginner.

I just reset the unit (C2900XL) to factory defaults and was going through the initial configurations. I've not gotten very far because when I try and "set system contact *****" the response I get is "invalid input at marker" (points to system) furthermore when I type "set ?" it barfs back "unrecognized command". If I type "?" the set command is listed along with many others. What am I doing wrong? All of this is being done in privilaged cli mode.

The 2900 is IOS based not catos based so there will be no "set" commands . You will configure it like any other IOS based switch like the 2950 though it will have fewer features than a 2950 .
